Pirate Day - shiver me timbers!!!!

These scalliwags had a fantastic day! We worked, listened to pirate tales and played pirate games all day. Our morning greeter even wore a hook for pirate handshakes! 

We walked the plank in shark invested waters....

 We all got pirate tattoos ...sorry, moms!

We used hooks to pick up jewels...

We earned gold coins for our good work and behavior!

Thursday is a 1/2 day and then summer vacation begins! I hope you know how much we have loved working with your children this year. All of them have grown and made so many gains. When I look at pictures from September, I can hardly believe these are the same boys! I want to thank you for sharing your sons with me this year - it has been such a happy, wonderful school year. I have appreciated all of your help and support as we worked together. I would love to hear from you this summer to hear how your child is doing. 

Frog Day!!!

Everything we did on Tuesday was about frogs! We read, wrote, and created frogs all day long. We learned about the frog life cycle, metamorphosis and words like amphibian, gill and webbed feet. The best part of the day was when we made and ate frog floats! 

Coming up tomorrow...Pirate Day!

Zoo Animals

We continued our zoo animal learning this week with some mammals and a marsupial! We created lions, tigers, and monkeys and wrote about kangaroos and elephants. We will complete our Zoo Riddle Book next week and bring it home to show it to our families! 

We had a special yoga class with Miss Kelly on Thursday and a special guest reader! 

We have two special days planned for next week...
Tuesday will be Frog Day and Wednesday will be Pirate Day! We will learn all about frogs and the frog life cycle on Frog Day. Pirate Day is always a fun day- I will be sure to post a lot of pictures of our games and activities! 
I will send a print copy of your child's report card home next Thursday in their folder. These last few days can be a little challenging for some of the children, but we have many fun and low-stress activities planned for them. Remind your children that we are there to help them, and that our week will be a special one!
